Dear Susan and Nancy,
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! I just found out I passed the 2007 CHT exam! YAAAAYYY!!!!!
Oh my God! I could not have done it without you. Thank you for all the courses, but especially Basics and Beyond, The Purple Book and the practice exams. All were absolutely essential for my success.
I cannot express my appreciation enough for you two FABULOUS women. You answered every cry for help either by email and incredibly even by telephone. As I have said before I have never had this level of professionalism, customer support, technical support and genuine caring from any other professional organization in our field. And I have been an OT for 25 years!
Joining EHT was the best thing I have ever done! It is money well spent! In my opinion, EHT is essential for any therapist who wants to elevate his or her level of practice.
Thank you again! Much love to you both, God Bless and Happy Holidays!
Sincerely,
Debra Francis, OTR/L, CHT!!!!
